1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

A 79-year-old man presented with fatigue and right shoulder pain. Computed tomography revealed right pleural effusion and osteosclerosis of the sternoclavicular joint. There were no signs of malignancy or infection in the pleural fluid studies. His bone scintigraphy exhibited the "bull's head sign." Despite the absence of skin lesions, he was diagnosed with synovitis-acne-pustulosis-hyperostosis-osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome. Remission was achieved after treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and oral prednisolone. SAPHO syndrome causes pleural effusion, even in patients without skin lesions. Bone scintigraphy should be considered in the workup for patients with unexplained pleural effusion.
